From: M on 2 Apr 2008 12:01 I have a script in /cgi-bin/. I want it when called to download a dynamic file, actually an image to a file on the server. Basically pull a graph from whats actually a router of mine, save it to /temp_images. I have tried using: "system "/usr/bin/wget..." with no luck. Can someone give me a shove in the right direction? I cannot seem to find where the perl "get" command supports simply saving to a directory but I may have missed something and many times do. Thanks. Matt

An actual error message is more use than 'no luck'. Does your wget live in /usr/bin (mine doesn't)? > Can someone give me a shove in the right direction?

I dunno, just guessing as you don't give any clue what so ever what goes wrong. Perhaps you are working on a Windows machine?
